Playing Games

Franklin U, Book 1

De: Riley Hart

Narrado por: J.F. Harding

Brax

Tyson Langley thinks the king in Franklin University Kings is in reference to him. Star lacrosse player and God’s gift to the female and male population, there’s nothing the spoiled jock can’t have.

It’s impossible for us to be in the same room without talking crap to each other. But I also have a secret…as much as I despise Ty, I want him too. I revel in our banter and in never knowing what he’ll say next.

I’ve spent too much time on the wrong side of the law for someone like Ty, though, and if I want to make it through college and escape my past, he’s a distraction I don’t need.

Ty

Braxton Walker needs to learn to lighten up. If you search brooding online, his name pops up. He’s the bad boy with a leather jacket and a scowl. We couldn’t be more different.

Finding ways to annoy him is like the longest foreplay session of my life. And when we end up working together, it gets harder to deny how hot he makes me.

What’s a little hooking up between enemies?

We weren’t supposed to become friends or share secrets. We weren’t supposed to understand each other and all the complicated stuff we’re going through.

I’m used to playing games, only the more time I spend with Brax, the less it feels like playing around and the more it becomes something real.

Cute Story

I loved the book.
It was funny and heart felt
I especially loved there banter toward one another.

Loved the Story!

I don't even know what to do with myself now that I'm done with Ty and Brax's story! I could have kept reading about them forever. I loved every word of this! From the first interaction between them through their happily ever after, it was simply wonderful. They start off just irrating the heck out of each other. The back and forth, the barbs and quips, the sarcasm...just all on point and so entertaining! They spend more and more time together, convinced they both find the other supremely annoying, and just keep evolving into friends and then more. Watching all of that unfold was such a joy. There was such a strong connection between them. They were both dealing with some issues surrounding their family and their future. They were both such kind and caring people. They were so perfect for each other and taking the journey with them to this realization was fabulous! So sweet, so swoony, and so steamy. It gave me butterflies and made me smile so much! Add in the wonderful cast of characters, from Ty's friends to Braxton's Grandma, and this book was just perfect all the way around! What a great way to kick off a new shared world series. I am so excited for the rest of the books to come!

I recently became a JF Harding fan, and I really love his voice, but I had trouble in this book differentiating between who was speaking and it pulled me out of the story a bit. But overall I am glad I listened!

Sunshine & Lacrosse, adorable

This was fun and the relationship between the two 100/10 ! The performance was perfect and the spice was a yes from mee

Perfect as is but amazing if narrators flip flop roles!

Love the story!! Love both narrators!

I just think that if they flip flop roles it would have fit better !

Better Than I Expected!

I enjoyed this book so much more than I'd anticipated. I'm not usually into college or sports themed stories, so I'm glad I gave this one a try.

Ty and Brax were both flawed yet likable characters, and J.F. Harding really brought them to life.

Despite their personal differences and challenges, the angst was relatively light in this book. The heat between them was epic, but it never came off as unwarranted. I absolutely loved all of it!

What a great start to this series!

At the start of this book I did not think I was going to like it. Ty and Braxton were so abrasive to each other. But as it became their love language I really started to enjoy their banter. They did not take each other seriously. Even with their baggage they balance each other out. I love how their relationship evolves and they grow individually as well.

The narration was superb! I can’t wait to start the next book!!!

Loved it!

I loved this book/audio! The FU series is awesome. Brax and Ty are adorable together. This story is low angst, hot and pretty much perfect.

Kept getting better

At first it was like steamy hot but I had a hard time getting used to the narrators voice with the image of the characters in my head but after a few chapters I was impressed with how many voices the narrator did and how I could tell the difference between them all. The story became so endearing and it switched between sweet to steamy and it kept me smiling and laughing and it was just the perfect mix of everything. Loved the ending too.

Love the communication and story

I was pleasantly surprised by how much I loved this one! I love Riley’s books but for some reason I wasn’t thrilled at the idea at first, but I loved the pace and how they worked with each other and off of each other! It felt more like a real story I could believe than just a romance novel, I want more!
